The local flood interpretation of Noah's flood became accepted by many Christians after 19th century scientific findings. [citation needed] The view was defended by 19th century Scottish geologist Charles Lyell, in his book Principles of Geology (1833), where he concluded that the Genesis flood must have been a regional affair and not a global deluge.
